I had the wonderful opportunity to visit South Australia with a great team of people from all over the UK. I’ve travelled around a lot of Australia, but this was totally different to anywhere I had previously visited. It was more like what you imagine Australia to be like.
We landed in Adelaide to a wonderful 28 degrees and headed in to South Australia’s cosmopolitan coastal capital. We were really lucky to visit Adelaide when we did, as the arts festivals were on. These including The Adelaide Fringe, WOMADelaide, Gluttony and the Adelaide Festival. The atmosphere and hustle and bustle throughout the city and in the surrounding suburbs was magical. The festivals, were a great place for families and friends to come together and eat, drink, relax and enjoy all of the amazing activities going on.
One of my highlights of the trip, was getting off the beaten track and visiting the outback in South Australia. You can do this as a tour from Adelaide and have your trip tailored made to your interests, or you can hire a car and go exploring this amazing place all by yourself (or why not even do a bit of both).
We headed over to Flinders Mountain Range, this was truly breath taking, with the rugged, weathered peaks and rocky gorges, it is some of the most dramatic landscapes I have ever seen. Throughout the day, the peaks change colour which is just amazing. We had the opportunity to have a scenic flight over the ranges and the pilot was great, he was very informative about the Aboriginal history and formation of the peaks. This was a wonderful and memorable experience that I would highly recommend to really take in this amazing place. We were also lucky enough to then watch the sunset over the ranges while we drank champagne and the tour guide sang some songs throughout the evening.
We stayed at Wilpena Pound which is where we did the Scenic flight, this was fantastic tented accommodation which really added to the outback experience. The kangaroos rustling around the tents were great and just added to the whole experience.
We got the ferry over to Kangaroo Island. This place was pretty special, as you can imagine, there are kangaroos everywhere, we had to be careful a few times not to knock any over. The scenery is great and the roads are great for getting around and exploring the island and also finding koala bears hiding in the trees. Really wonderful seeing these iconic animals in their natural habitat.

We have just returned from a multi centre Vietnam trip. What can I say, absolutely fantastic holiday from start to finish. Dave helped us all the way. We had a plan in our head and Dave took time to plan our perfect trip. Communication was great, letting us know promptly of any changes. We would definitely book again and highly recommend to others.

I booked two holidays in 4 months with Dave at eshores. First one a 16 day trip around Vietnam north to south which included numerous flights and taxis. My second holiday was in October traveling around Vietnam again and Cambodia. Every hotel in both countries was spot on, every transfer went smooth with no problems. I'll Definitely use eshores again and thanks to Dave who arranged everything, a fantastic experience 👍👍

Recently booked a four centre holiday to Asia. The process was straightforward and seamless. Rob, the agent who dealt with our requirements was extremely helpful and not pushy. He was very easy to talk with and seemed genuinely interested in our plans. He managed to put together exactly what we wanted and at a great price.
